Revealing mistakes: In the close-up of the sleeping pills prescribed for House by Wilson, it can been seen that the strength of the medication is twenty times what is normal for Zolpidem, and the directions are the sort used for antibiotics, not sleeping pills.

Quotes:

Dr. Gregory House: [to Thirteen] You're not on the guest list. Bachelor parties are an ancient sacred male rite of passage.

Belly shots

Eccellent episode has House still hallucinating that Amber is with him, a high school wrestler falls ill, and House prepares Chase's bachelor party. The patient is actually interesting for a change, and reminded me of a young Matt Damon. The business with Amber is not funny, but quite serious as House makes a couple of decisions that cause problems, and which he blames om her apparition. The bachelor party is a riot, especially when Wilson walks into his apartment and finds it going on in his living room. Thanks to House, Wilson also meets up with an old flame, a stripper named Karen who apparently hasn't aged a day since he last saw her nine years ago. Unfortunately, Chase finds her to be toxic (see the episode). Highly recommended.
